I believe that the run-up prior to the actual elections had already 
priced in most of the positives in the economy. Once the elections 
took place and players digested the much expected results, they locked 
in their profits and left. Like you said, other factors matter now 
(like the new Exchequer, etc).
Hey, we are a small market in the overall scheme of things, a boat 
(but better than a sampan, I guess) in the ocean. Hedge funds can play 
us around.
That's why the restructuring of the GLCs is an important step in the
maturity of our market. Anyway, it's hard to hold just one event (ie
elections) and assess its impact - we get a cocktail of other factors 
now (oil prices, China etc).

Your ARIMA and Census X-11 Models sound interesting... that's what 
I like about you academics, always learning and tinkering around with 
new (or old?) tools. Malaysia should encourage cross fertilization of 
ideas between academia and the private sector. Have you considered 
joining the fund management industry? Can you enlighten me a little on 
how your models work (just the brief basics)?

Cheers.

PS1-Just wondering if you give any technical analysis talks. It'd be 
good to network with other charting "kaki", plus exchange of ideas.

PS2-Do you have/know where to get, pre-1987 (up to 1977) KLCI data?

Subject	My Article in The EDGE this week....

Dear Sirs/Madams,

I know that when markets are in a bad shape people tend to shy 
away from buying biz/investment weeklies... (that includes me) so 
this is to remind that do catch hold of this week's The EDGE.

Sdra Azam has slotted in my article under Special Report in this 
week's The EDGE... "What has happened to the post-election 
rally?" - please have a look and comments welcomed.

All the best & Happy dabbling in shares (b4 June ends!).
